They had a "potluck" type of get-together afterwards. We decided to make graduation caps out of mini muffins, icing, shortbread cookies, licorice and m&ms. YUMMY! She had a blast making them. Mostly because I let her nibble on all the goodies as we went.
While we "baked". . . Mykah played...
Then we were off to the party!
When she marched in the shyness set in...
And it lasted through all of the songs! All of the songs they sang she had been singing around the house for WEEKS before this big day. I told her way ahead of times on numerous occasions that when she was singing them at graduation there would be TONS of people there watching. She seemed more than ok with all of that. Then the big day came...
By the end of it she was all warmed up and ready to sing. And yes... (if I haven't already mentioned this) I did cry a little during this song. It was just SO sweet... and sad. Saying goodbye doesn't mean the same thing to kids though... so she was fine with it all.
Before we headed out I got a couple of shots of the 2 of them. The pictures may all be crap, but be glad I got ANYTHING! I was operating the camera, video camera and taking care of Mykah. Talk about a tired momma!
